Ladies and gentlemen, coming in third place and
making the podium is KEEPING FIT! Wait ….don’t
go anywhere! Notice how I did not say exercising? The word “exercising” is
a turn off in many people’s eyes. Although I personally like the word and use
it often; I like to approach this from a different angle. The truth of the
matter is that keeping fit and exercising is synonymous. Thank God for spell
check because I just hacked that word all up J In keeping fit you physically allow yourself
to do the things on this earth that are important to you. Your odds of reaching
your full potential and fulfilling your purpose are much better than if you are
not fit. I have heard of too many people that have not been able to reach their
dreams or do some things they have always wanted to do because their body just
will not allow it. You can only abuse your body for so long before you start
feeling the effects from not taking care of it. Let me start by saying IT IS
NOT TOO LATE! No matter how young or old you are, make today the first day of
the rest of your life and embrace change.
So
what is keeping fit? Keeping fit in its simplest definition is nothing more
than increasing your metabolism allowing your body to burn off those calories
that have been building up. I told you it was a simple definition (my
definition). At my job I often hear the
phrase “keep it simple”. I agree with that phrase. Life is not as complicated
as we make it out to be. This is why I gave you a simple definition of keeping
fit. The more you understand and less
intimidating it appears, the more achievable it seems. You have now just
entered into the “World According to Dan”, keep
it simple ….keep in fit.
Really! Time to go already! Good thing this is just
the beginning of this series because I have a lot to talk about. More
importantly, what do you have to share? Remember, we are all in this together
and can learn from one another.
Great post!
